New Gundam Seed Manga Series: Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Re: (1) - Cover Image
Gundam Seed Manga Series: Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Re: (Vol.1) (Release Date Sept. 26th 2012)
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Re: is a manga adaptation of the
TV series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED written and illustrated by Juu Ishiguchi,
published Kadokawa Shoten and serialized in Gundam Ace magazine in 2012.
They've already confirmed that there won't be another SEED anime. The remaster was done because, at the time, the show had too low of a budget to do what the creators wanted. This way it's been done so "the fans can see the series as it was meant to be seen".
Those are the words of the creators, not me. To be honest, the manga are really hard to find here in Japan. I had to work my ass off to find the few books I have (this one was particularly hard to find).
Too bad Japan thinks its the greatest thing since Zeta.
I would associate Seed's popularity with its mass audience appeal despite it variable quality. It like Twilight, for some reason bland characters are easier for the audience to insert themselves into and sympathize with.
I disagree. As someone living in Japan I can vouch and say that it's not the easiest series to find. Sure the kits sell wonderfully, and the models of the female characters, but the manga, trinkets (keychains, etc.) and models of anyone besides the girls are extremely hard to find. Half of the stores I visit here in Sapporo don't have Gundam SEED manga at all, and the ones that do usually only have a few Destiny manga. I've looked for this book for since September and just happened to be visiting probably the biggest bookstore in Sapporo and found a single copy. It seems AGE is getting all the attention nowadays. Why? I don't know.
And next comes Seed Destiny Remastered and then a new Seed Anime. Hopefully.
ReplyDeleteThat´s a good day
Before doing a new Seed Anime or whatever, they should release the movie which was forgotten.

Deletei got no problem with the seed series but i think it have way too much attention than it deserves, overexposed.
